Re: Spoilers For Wednesday December 15th 2010

Liked the numbers game at the end, I had 278 the same way. Can't wait to see you on the show...good luck. [and I mean that genuinely rather than a sarcastic reply] Cheers, Kirk. The method looks impressive, but all I did was replace the 50 and 75 with a 2 and 3 respectively. I find that helps a lot...

Re: Countdown in Lincoln 2011- Saturday 29th January

Might give this a go actually. Good practice for when I go on a few days afterwards! That's exactly what I did - went to COLIN then recorded a couple of days after....and it worked as I won the series :P Not expecting to win anything in all honesty - just going along 'cos I love Countdown quite a l...

Re: Spoilers For Monday December 13th 2010

Nice numbers solve in the last round from Tom...I just about got 273 in the 30 seconds by doing 75 x 3 = 225 then adding 8x(9+7-10).

Re: Spoilers for Friday 10 December 2010

Just seen this on 4OD - scarily good performance from Eoin. One of those games where I put my pen and paper to one side and just admire the standard of play.

Hi, everyone. I'm Dan McColm, and will be appearing soon on the programme having recently passed my audition, which, strangely enough, was over the phone. I'm a fresher at Durham University and I'm studying German and Russian. I'm proud to say I learnt the letters of the alphabet from Countdown :) M...

Re: Spoilers for Friday 10 December 2010

I'd put my student loan on Eoin winning this one. You mean you haven't spent the first lot already? Wow, good going! That's a good point, I have spent it. Were it not for the fact I use Ladbrokes as a bank, then I'd be screwed. I wish our uni network didn't block Apterous; I wouldn't go out nearly ...

Re: Spoilers for Friday 10 December 2010

Niall has missed a couple of easy nines, COMPANIED and EMIGRATES (Niall had MIGRATES but didn't put the E at the front!), which would've been food and drink for Eoin. Until yesterday, he was also the only octochamp I'd ever beaten while playing from home (trufax). Eoin is a brilliant player and will...

Re: Spoilers For Thursday December 9th 2010

Was still a good performance from Jack, MONIALS was very nice. Was gutted when Peter declared SALMON, if only he knew the good old SALMON + I trick!
